    I mean sure, if you can find any evidence they’re actually doing that. We have the best intelligence agencies in the world, both domestic and foreign facing. So where’s the meat?

      Well, there’s a law to block it, and our intelligence agencies are pretty secretive, so there’s a good chance the proof exists.

      I’m against banning it, not because I don’t think China is manipulating the algorithm (they probably are), but because I believe banning it is a violation of the 1st amendment. I refuse to use it, but I also refuse to ban others from using it.

        That’s the problem though. Under that reasoning they can shut down any social media app. There’s specifically a catch all in the definition to do this so they don’t have to pass another law.
